Nicely done. Like how you have done the figure and the graphical quality of the entire piece... brings to mind Aubrey Beardsley.

Beautifully done, although there's one little thing that looks a little out of place - the way her right eye (on our left) is set, it looks like she's glaring at the viewer. Was that intentional?

I think I like this better in black and white. Good work in any case - do you have the story written down elsewhere in your gallery?

The story is something I've been meaning to work on for years. About five or so years ago, I had it up to 110 pages, 8x11, pt. 10 arial font. I just didn't like how it flowed at all and so many things have changed since then that I can't hardly use it.

Eventually I'll write it. I hope.

I'm sure that even if you don't end up using it as it is, you'll find plenty of material to salvage. I know I always do.

I like maaany things about this one:

hair, really dynamic
overall anatomy, although she is wearing clothes. it's obvious that the proportions match the style.
hands, her right hand is given a great feature by adding the spirit like swirls
background, nice composition by putting her at the line of the circel.

keep it up!

I like gray and white better than color. I'm half color blind so it's easier for me to see.

This is really cool. (On equal grounds with the colored one, but the lines on the actual character are more visible in black and white. XD) But yeah. It's great to see more from you.

meiken In reply to claraious [2006-02-12 19:50:50 +0000 UTC]

The lines would be more visable in the color, but on both, I had to take a picture. This one I was able to give it a whole lot of contrast, but too much contrast on the color would ruin the colors themselves >.<

My scanner's just not big enough

Thanks for your comments!
